Description

Discussion

The UI_MODELESS_DLG_SETFOCUS() function sets focus to a modeless dialog box, displaying it if necessary.

Example

This example is in two parts. Part one starts up a modeless Xdialog.

ui_modeless_dlg_box("Basic Modeless Dialog", <<%dlg%
{xmargin=10}
{ymargin=2}
<20,2Hide!Hide><20,2Close!Close>
%dlg%, <<%code%
if a_dlg_button = "Close" then 
    ui_modeless_dlg_close("Basic Modeless Dialog")
end if 
if a_dlg_button="Hide"
   ui_dlg_hide("Basic Modeless Dialog")
end if
%code%)

Part two runs as a separate script. It re-displays and sets focus to the Xdialog started above after it has been hidden (when you press the 'Hide' button).

ui_modeless_dlg_setfocus("Basic Modeless Dialog")
